Wow! Was I excited to get this book as a free download from amazon! And when I realized that A Hope Undaunted was the beginning of a new trilogy by Julie Lessman that continues with three wonderful stories of members of the O'Connor family, I did mental cartwheels and sat down to read. This book provided me with many hours of reading pleasure as the youngest O'Connor daughter, Katie, is spotlighted. I so loved this book.

UNBELIEVABLE EMOTIONS - JULIE LESSMAN AT HER BEST!
Katie O'Connor is a stubborn, spit-fire whose beau, Jack Worthington, is "wrapped around her finger", and meets all the criteria on her list: wealthy, handsome, and well-connected. Her plans to marry Jack, enter law school, and fight for women's rights, are interrupted when she is unexpectedly forced to spend the summer away from Jack, and work with childhood friend Luke, aka "Cluny", McGee, with whom she had a love/hate relationship. Even though the scrawny, dirty, street-wise kid has grown into a tall, handsome, intelligent, lawyer - the sparks fly between them from the first chapter. In a family filled with faith - Katie questions hers, and fights with her father for control of her life, and the expressions of his love she feels she is lacking.
"A Hope Undaunted" - the first book in the Winds of Change trilogy - opens in 1929 Boston, and is the continuation of the O'Connor family saga, which started with the Daughters of Boston trilogy. Warm interactions between family members previously introduced, continue in "A Hope Undaunted", as well as that of numerous new characters - among them, scene stealer Gabe, a feisty, eight year old orphan, and Parker Riley, Katie's kind, easy-going boss.
There are numerous "twists-and-turns" in "A Hope Undaunted" - as in all of Julie Lessman's books - both heart-breaking, and heart-warming. I experienced many emotions while reading this beautiful, powerful, classic Julie Lessman, story that is filled with humor, drama, tears, anger, romance, excitement, angst, passion, characters so realistic I feel I know them personally, and an inspirational family of faith, whose love and passion is centered around God, and which drew me closer to Him through their experiences.
Julie Lessman is a master at her craft - her books inspire and touch me deeply. They're hard to put down, bring me joy with their happy endings, always leave me wanting more, and leave warm memories that last long after finishing them!!

Phenomenal!
Luke McGee and Katie O'Connor's story was phenomenal! There's no other word for this book, or in fact for any of Julie Lessman's books. Each and every one is phenomenal. The love story, the salvation story, and most importantly the sacrifices made in the name of friendship and love are beautiful. Not to mention heartbreaking. I adore this book, and you will too. It is a must-read that will keep you on the edge of your seat until you read the very last page.

Amazing!!
Julie Lessman has done it again! A Hope Undaunted was an amazing novel! I absolutely loved Katie and Luke's story. Every one of Julie Lessman's books is a blessing to read. This book gave the lesson of sacrifice. Luke and Katie fall in love, but circumstances out of their control tear them apart. I laughed, cried and sat on the edge of my seat waiting to find out if Katie gets her happily ever after. This is most definitely another must-read!
